Upon receiving permission, the researcher conducted an
orientation for both the control and experimental groups, with
parental involvement in informing the students about using
contextualized and non-contextualized self-learning modules.
Parental orientation was divided into two sessions: the
experimental group's parents were oriented in the morning,
while the control group's parents were oriented in the
afternoon. During the orientation sessions, the researcher
explained the study's purpose and distributed consent letters,
requesting permission for their child's participation. The
schedules for administering the pre-test, distributing, and
collecting the modules were also discussed.

To assess student conceptual understanding of science


using the CSLM and non-CSLM, a standardized test covering
third-quarter Grade 9 science topics was administered as a
pre-test and a post-test to the experimental and control
groups. The pre-test was administered before exposure to the
respective learning approaches to determine the students'
prior knowledge of the subjects. Subsequently, the
experimental group used the CSLM, while the control group
utilized the non-CSLM. At the end of the quarter, a post-test
was administered to both groups to evaluate their
